It's A 10 Styling Products ARE A 10, Indeed!

Last January, we were researching the value of keratin leave-in styling products for damaged, dull hair. You can read the beauty post here.

We had mentioned it's a 10 miracle leave-in plus keratin 4 oz.

And we also divulged that we were going to try it.

The small, 4 ounce bottle is NOT the cheapest at $20, but it performs beautifully, so we will ALWAYS keep this one in our hair care arsenal.

We had noted that keratin in shampoos, conditioners + leave-in treatments all NOURISH hair with body-building ingredients that effectively repair damaged locks, protecting against further breakage and adding shine and elasticity to every strand.

That is NOT our hair in the photo. We wish it were, but we are working hard to improve it.

Our hair does NOT feature much fall-out, BUT, we started using It's a 10 with keratin, because we had found more broken ends for some strange reason. Plus, we have a wonky thyroid, which can also cause hair problems, and we had been under some personal stress for about 6 months, and we believe that all played a role in our hot mess hair.

Since we've been spritzing on the It's a 10, we have found faster growing locks, less breakage and better shine.

BUT-----the downside to using keratin products is the super soft, super sleekness that occurs. For most women, those are good things, but keratin leaves our tresses almost difficult to manage, or do anything with it.

We like BIG hair + volume, so we add a volumizing product the next day.
STILL.....a leave-in keratin styling product, shampoo or conditioner are all excellent for correcting + hiding split ends, frizz, dullness, breakage...and so forth.
